Non-notable sportsman/businessman, no credible sources, primarily edited by a single use account that appears to be whom the subject of the article is, with a perhaps inadvertent attempt to advertise a non-notable company. Issues with the article since creation that include NPOV, conflict of interest & original research. Macktheknifeau (talk) 08:22, 10 February 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Delete - fails WP:GNG and WP:NFOOTBALL. Giant Snowman 19:17, 11 February 2015 (UTC)[reply]
Comment, the article claims he has played in the S.League, a fully professional league, though he seems to be the source. Hack (talk) 02:28, 12 February 2015 (UTC)[reply]
Comment, I searched for any independent articles or statistical sites that would confirm that he played for them and found nothing concrete. There are a handful of articles that say "former S-League player", and I do not personally doubt he was at the club at some point, and likely played matches but I can't find anything independent that definitely states that in a manner that would qualify him as notable.

Delete - Player fails WP:NFOOTY as there is no credible evidence he has played in a fully professional league, nor senior international football. Even if he has played in the S-League, it seems highly likely that he made only a handful of appearances and so NFOOTY would not really be relevant here. No indication of any other achievements that have garnered sufficient, significant coverage to satisfy WP:GNG. As the academy he is head of does not have its own articleI presume it is not really that notable and so he being head of it does not confer notability?
